Help build a better future

By bringing the best care closer to home

CHILDREN’S HEALTH CENTRE CAMPAIGN

The children’s health community at Surrey Memorial is one of the busiest and most respected in the province. The Children’s Health Centre at Surrey Memorial Hospital, built in 2001, is the only health facility in the Fraser Valley dedicated to children’s health and pediatric emergencies.

Since 2001 the population in our community has grown by 50% but the Children’s Health Centre has not. Right now, thousands of local families are traveling to Vancouver to see specialists because there is not enough space to provide more outpatient clinics.

Surrey Hospital Foundation is raising $6 million to transform the Children’s Health Centre by creating a larger, family-friendly space with more clinics for outpatients and a dedicated area for kids who need day care procedures. The changes will also mean that more patient rooms will be available for children who need overnight stays.

WHY NOW?

Surrey has grown significantly since 2001, but the Children’s Health Centre at Surrey Memorial Hospital has not. Today, approximately 43% of BC’s kids live in communities served by Fraser Health.

Every year, thousands of local families are forced to miss school and work because they need to travel all the way to Vancouver for medical appointments.

Last year alone, families from Surrey, White Rock, Langley and Delta logged more than 24,000 visits to Vancouver to see pediatric specialists because the services were not available in their community.
